Yesterday afternoon I received a call from the executive director of Middfest International with a plea for some emergency editing of a document that needs to go to press by the end of the week.  I brought home a print copy, which Richard helped me scan and open in word processing.  I worked on it last evening and this afternoon and sent my revision, via email, just before dinner.  During dinner, I received a call telling me that it's "Perfect" - whew!

Well, thanks, DR TCB, but I was afraid I'd gotten a little rusty.

I called and cancelled my therapy appointment for tomorrow.  I probably should have cancelled yesterday's appointment, because it only increased my pain, but I guess I didn't know better.

TOD:

Red

Just that simple.  RED.  It was my favorite Crayola color.


That was my first favorite color.  Magenta was another favorite.


Aha! Magenta! THAT was my favorite crayola! In the deep crannies of my brain I knew there had to have been a favorite.

It was very pretty.

Ron Palillo has died of a heart attack. 

I just read about that:( I didn't know that he had been with his partner for 41 years!  And Ron was 63, so they were together since Ron was 22.  Amazing.

It's great.  From what I read he seemed to be living a happy & productive life.  What a shame.

It was mentioned whooping cough had effected his health.  From the time Craig began working at our local school I began begging him to get his tetanus booster which also includes whooping cough.  We live in the highest percentage of un-vaccinated children in the country.  As a going away gift Craig finally got vaccinated. 

Not to mention his heavy cigarette smoking.

I missed that important piece of information.

Unfortunately therapy is like that.  How often do you go?

DR TCB have you discussed something the therapist can do to help manage your pain?  For my shoulder I included a short massage at the end to relax the muscles around the injury.

Then you really need at least 3 days in-between your appointments.  Can you book ahead and adjust your schedule?

We tried to say so on YouTube last November. but the result was possibly our least watched YouTube parody ever, well one of them anyway

IT'S NOT DELUSIONAL Darren Criss parody

(By "we' I mean of course me)


Nobody watched even GLEE parodies any more.  :)

Favorite crayons:  Lime Green, Yellow Green and Green Yellow

Toy I wish they would bring back:



I had that, too!  Except mine was called the "Time Machine." :D


I also one of those.  It was "cool" and "hot" at the same time! :)

My favourite crayola colour was the one I needed at the particular moment to make what I was colouring interesting.

I used to love the Marx Sets:

I love the Marx Brothers

TOD

Don't remember which colors were favorites, but I'm revisiting the old names on Wikipedia which has a chart you can sort. .....

What a fun list!  I really liked the "precious metals" - copper, gold, and silver.

I loved to color and still do, but now I'm learning to use Copic Markers.

Those colors were never in the boxes I got.  You got the BIG box of Crayola Crayons, didn't you!!??

I knew Ron Palillo slightly through a mutual friend.  I remember a delightful evening of cut-throat charades at this friend's house where Ron and I were on opposite teams.  I gave their team the play, Bussy D'Ambois, to act out and guess.  Ron responded by giving us a equally obscure title the next round.  My kind of play-for-blood player.  Years later, when he moved to New York, we went to his "garage" sale and bought a beautiful deco lamp from him and a terrific 1920's Victrola for my 78's.  Both items still adorn our home.  He seemed like a very nice man and I certainly enjoyed the brief amount of time I spent with him.

Today, I'm going to see my Dad.  I haven't seen him in 22 years.  He's out visiting his sister until tomorrow.  Because I was away and busy before that, I was unable to see him before today, and it was just that my brother, who'd been spending time with him, told me that he wanted to see me.  He divorced my mom 33 years ago, or something like that.  In 1978, I stopped contact with him, but that's another story, nevermind... anyway...  Some time after that he moved to Tennessee.   I saw him in 1990 briefly when his mother passed away and he came out for the funeral.  In 1996, I called him when my great-uncle passed away (as he always loved my great-uncle) and I mentioned to him that I was gay, kinda off the cuff.  (which was fine, whatever)  I contacted him in 2004 or so, just to say hi and I'm alive.  We emailed for a while, sent gifts, etc.  Then I guess we both lost interest and I kept in touch with him through my younger brother who seemed more interested in a relationship with his father than I did.

All in all, I don't blame him for anything anymore.  I mean, what's the point?  What good/bad is it going to do?  I really have no interest in a father/son relationship with him, but he is my father.  Bottom line is he's my biological father, can't change that at all. 

So, I'll make the trek to Sacramento ( 2 hour drive) say hello, catch up, etc, then I'll come home.  I don't feel obligated, but I know it's the "right thing" to do.  Can't really negate the fact that this man had a part in giving me life. 

<and these are the days of our lives>
I also hope that all goes well for you, DR Matthew.  Be glad that you can talk with your Dad.  I'd give anything to be able to talk with mine.

I have become such a coffee wuss.  I used to drink it black (many, many years ago), but in recent years I have discovered French Vanilla Coffee Creamer.  Today is grocery delivery day, but I am currently out of creamer, so I made a cup with just milk in it.  Yuck!  :P
I like a cup of coffee every great once in awhile (I'm a tea drinker for the most part).  But I like it with half and half.  Most of those creamers are too sweet for my taste.

And, once again, major Kudos and Thanks to the Fraud Department at Chase for taking care of my issue last night. I just checked my account information, and everything seems to be back to normal. Whew!
Glad to hear that!
